Your Questions About Ugly Spider Veins

Lisa asks…
I guess its not really a question..?
No one really had an answer to my question earlier, and it’s just bugging me. I’m 19 years old and I have spider veins. I had problems with depression and suicide before (like three years ago), and I finally was able to control my problems. Then I realize I have spider veins, and I literally have just lost it. I’ve been cutting, and crying myself to sleep every night. I know what they are, but now I feel so ugly and old. I feel like I got the sucky genes of the family. My skin is pale, and I feel like I have wrinkles now. I just don’t know what to do. I just feel like giving up.

rob answers:
I feel exactly the way you do but I’m 41 years old. At 19 you should not be feeling old. I believe that a doctor can do something about your spider veins. Have you tried going to a cosmetic counter at a department store or a cosmetic store so that they can show you what types of make-up you can use to spruce your face up. I am 41 years old with dark circles under my eyes (i’ve had this since I was a child) and also began to see actual wrinkles, I also have scoliosis
( curvature of the spine) . All I can do about these things are little things to make me feel a bit better about myself. There are certain things that I can’t change about myself and I’m not going to kill myself over them either. I am slowing but surely beginning to accept all of these imperfections. Every day I usually see someone that is worse off than I am.
Do you look at those magazines with all those perfect looking models? Have you ever heard of air brushing? That is exactly what has to be done to those so called “perfect looking models”. Not one person on this planet is perfect. Every single one of us have imperfections.

Does anyone know what these small red dots are on my arms and chest?
I have these small red dots on my arms and chest, disappear when I press on them and then come back. I noticed just a few when I was about 18 years old. I am now almost 28 and they definitely have multiplied over the years. They are not raised and they do not itch or anything. There are no other symptoms except for they are ugly and annoying.
I used to just have them on my arms, but now they are on my chest to. I am 8 months pregnant now ( I also had a child about 9 years ago) and I did not notice the ones on my chest till I was about 4 months pregnant.
About 6 months ago, I noticed one of the dots on my arm looked like it had burst and now looks like little spider veins. It still has the small red dot in the middle and little red veins all around it. Now, about 2 weeks ago, I noticed some of those on my chest too. I have asked a couple doctors recently since I became pregnant and they usually just brush it off, because its not the reason I am there in the first place.

You shoud seek out a dermatoligist , sounds like sun spots, which are usually harmless , but some can be precancerous.. Have the Dr check them out.

Ruth asks…
Can high doses of birth control affect stretch marks?
So I have problems with heavy bleeding and cramps and ovarian cysts so my doctor put me on birth control. Every couple of months he had to increase the dosage because it wasn’t helping much. Now I’m on the highest dosage there is and I have to take aspirin to make sure my blood doesn’t clot. So of course I gained weight fast and then I saw some ugly stretch marks…they keep popping up EVERYWHERE!!! I exercise and I’m not a large person. I went from weighing like 130 lbs to now weighing 150 lbs…so wtf…are some women more prone to stretch marks or is it the birth control because I have spider veins too…:(

rob answers:
It probably runs in your family somewhere down the line. Birth control hardly is a cause of stretch marks but you should talk to your doctor just to make sure.

William asks…
What do you think of these types of Witches?
Gelloudes-old wrinkled women with pale greasy skins, sweaty creamy-white hair, prune fingers, pimples, rashes and spider veins. They lurk in the shadows and strangle their victims. They can cause painful migraines and eye troubles. They are resentful, tantalizing, and enjoy participating in mockery.
Panoukles-ugly scrawny women with flaky scarlet hair, crooked teeth and reddish-pink skin covered in chiggers, shagreen patches and grazes. They are malignant and take great pleasure in spreading numerous diseases/epidemics either in fields or in villages.
Stringles-old plump petite and heavy women with eggplant-colored bushy hair, puffy cheeks, poisonous breath and pale-purple skin. They can turn into dark-purple birds with black talons and long thin necks to suck blood from victims, particularly new-born babies. They are corrupt and prejudiced.
They’re from modern Greek folklore.

They are really interesting! Actually I haven’t heard of one of them and I love mythology. They are not your run of the mill mythical creatures, thanks for sharing.
